Our CORE spondents are not as
prompt this hot weather as we would
like them to be- Please do not think
il is not important to give the news
at all times.
DoH'T pay % per cent more for
goods than you can get them for,
but 20 to Chadwick's and buy cheap
for cash. They mean to close out
their entire stock.
DIR. MCLANE makes some timely
suggestions in another column con
corning as to diet and exercise dur
ing the hot weather. 1t would be
well to read and heed them.
OUR job room is pretty well crowd
ed with orders and they continue to
come. No one turned away. Send
them in and if necessary our force
will be increased to meet the de-
mand.
The Executive Committee Of the
University will meet here tomorrow

THE newspapers continue to TEEN
with accounts Of boys and men be-
ing manned Or killed in jumping on

ton
The Hilarity Club will GO to
Cheat to morrow and remain at Camp
Eden until about August H. The
New DOMINION wishes the Club q
pleasant sojourn. The camping
grounds there now belong to it's

IT is subject of very general re-
mark about town that the street
lamps are about played out. There
is no light from Wallace's hotel to
the head of Main street. At all 9th
er points the lamps are not lighted
once month.
FAIRMoNT has let the contract for
lighting her streets with Edison
electric lamps Now if her council
would build an incline to carry pas
sengers from the railroad into town
it would be appreciated by people
who visit the place.
A PARTY of young folks were out
boating on the river Monday even
ing when the squall came up. They
were compelled to abandon their
boat until the storm subsidized. 1t
was near midnight when they ar
rived at home rather wilted and
bcdraggled looking company.
SEVERAL boys have of late been in
the habit of retiring to secluded and
and shady spots on the hill tops
near town and spending their Sun

considerable is said and to which q
considerable amount of superstition
attaches. The rising and setting of
Sirius or the dog star with the Sun
is supposed to be the cause of the
intense heat that usually prevails
during dog days.
SOME scapegrace, with no con
science and less sense, photographed
from Morgantown to theWheeling In
telligencer last week that the Mer'
chants National Bank of this place
had suspended What the motive
was for starting this lie cannot be
fathomed. The fellow who did il
would steal the bank vault empty i
he had half a chance.
The church of Morgantown were
quite generally closed on Sunday
There's nothing scares the average
minister like heat. 1t came very
near being white heat on Sunday
and preachers were not only out O
their pulpits but out of town. There
are some men who can't afford to Ii,
in the shade, but the fellow that cal
and don't has not yet turned up.
WHATEVER trouble and confusion
have overtaken the Merchants Ma
tional Bank; and however genera
and severe the public criticisms OF
the management, nobody has we
heard word rejecting on the in
tegrity and faithfulness Gifts cashier
Fifty years of honorable and uner
ring service in his office deserve
absolution from even the most un
reasoning criticism.
ED. RUcKER, who has recently dis
tinguished himself in little affai
with pistol. was one of the mos

pected to use pistol.
WILLIAM MALONE, residing nea
Catawba, made a second attempt t
end his life by cutting his throat
few days ago. He cut a terribl
cash in his neck, severing the wind
pipe, and it is believed the woun
will prove fatal though he is stil
living. He has been suffering fror
acute melancholia for some time, an
the deed is attributable to this mer
tai disorder-IndeT.
